To all whom 'it may concern:

This invention relates to a new and useful improvement in pads for horse-collars; and consists in a pad made in two sections, united at top and bottom by elastic straps, the object being to facilitate the ready and safe adjustment of the pads which protect the horse from the irritation occasioned by the moving of the collar, and at the same time protects the collar from the injurious eiects of perspiration.
